Default lots of little guys...

Took my kids there after we dropped into willow valley to check stuff out and see some friends....

caught lots of fish.... nice colors... no size... some went 13 inches but were super skinny. Nothing worth keeping.

kids had a blast catching all kinds of fish.

lots and lots of snow on the road. better have 4x4.

Default There about a week ago...

We were on the ice for about 2.5 hours and got 17 Brookies!! They were around 10-12" mark, with more smaller than the bigger ones.. Awesome time for everyone!!
Wind wasn't insane, and there was about 18" of ice!
